About the G4 format
G4 — CCITT Group 4 FAX
G4 is the more advanced monochrome fax compression format defined by ITU-T for Group 4 fax machines and TIFF storage. Using Modified Modified READ (MMR) compression, it achieves significantly better compression than G3 and is the standard for TIFF-based document archiving.
Common uses
- High-compression document fax archiving
- TIFF G4 document scanning for records management
- Legal and government document storage
- Converting G4 fax archives to PDF
About the PNM format

Common uses
- Generic Netpbm image interchange
- Flexible input for image processing tools
- Command-line and scripting image workflows
